ALESSANDRO E GIAN NATALE FANTINO 2017 ROSSO DEI DARDI

Anthony Lynch (Son of Kermit Lynch, Importer) - "Why not capture Nebbiolo’s dazzling aromatics in the form of a light, early-drinking red with low alcohol and soft tannins? While [Alessandro & Gian Natale Fantino's] venerable Barolos belong in every collector’s cellar, it is their beguiling everyday rosso that I find myself craving the most. Its perfumed Nebbiolo fruit and sweet, tender tannins would make a full-grown Barolo look back longingly at its former self, nostalgic for its sprightly youth. Serve it ever-so-slightly chilled."

Using sustainable farming methods, this is a great everday Nebbiolo mellowed in stainless steel for just 6 months before release.
